    Nickelback. I don’t know why they get so much hate, their music is actually decent

      Nickelback had a VERY distinctive style, to the point you could mix their songs together “This is how you remind me to wish you’d unclench your fists” style and people wouldn’t notice. They’re relative lack of range caused them to wear out their welcome a LOT faster than average.

      They deserve every last dollop of shit they got for No Fixed Address though.

        I think it’s worth it now to give the back catalog of the killers a listen. I felt the same way for a long time.

        That being said I’ve got a list of bands I enjoy a lot more than I could when they were being played every 40 minutes

      It was like the stars aligned when Nickelback guy married Avril Lavigne. Canada’s finest together at last!

      They just got played to death on the radio and his voice is pretty distinctive so all the songs sound the same. And it’s a bandwagon thing.
